A/N: I've been captivated by the idea that Ms. Frizzle is a Time Lady. I mean look at her! The clothes, the transportation, the personality! So this was the result: a quick little one-shot of Ms. Frizzle being a Time Lady. It's very AU but still kind of fun. Anyway ignore my ramblings and enjoy.

Ms. Frizzle smiled down at her students. "Tomorrow is parents' day!" She sang as her brightly coloured earrings danced around her neck.
"We're not going on a field trip with them are we?" Arnold groaned.
"You never know class!" The Frizz laughed at the sight of Arnold's down-turned face. "But I'll tell you what, my parents will be coming!" She grinned wildly as she looked over the shocked faces of her class.
"At my old school parents of the teacher never came to parents' day!" Phoebe muttered to herself.
The following day the students in Ms. Frizzle's class were almost bouncing with excitement, not only did they get to show their parents the most awesome teacher in the universe but they also got meet her parents! What would they be like? Did they dress just as crazy? Did they know their daughter drove a magic school bus?
"Come on mom!" Ralphie said as he pulled his mother along."I'm coming, I'm coming." His mother said with a smile, "There is no rush, we have all morning!"
The children and their parents milled about the class room. Pleasant smiles and encouraging comments were made as the children showed their caregivers the posters and reports that they had been working on.
With a smile the woman in the crazy costume – which happened to be covered in pictures of families – stood at the front of the class and spun around on her red heels. With a quick swoop she placed her beloved lizard, Liz, on her shoulder and clapped her hands. "OK class and parents it is question time!" Ms. Frizzle beamed at the students and their parents.
At that moment a loud noise filled the hallway and a strong breeze rushed through causing the papers in the class room to blow back and forth. A large smile lit up Ms. Frizzle's face, "My parents, right on time!"
That's a first. She thought as she moved towards the open doorway to see two people exiting a blue police box that sat right outside her classroom. An older gentleman with silver hair and bushy eyebrows held out his hand to the elegant woman beside him. Her hair was as curly and wild as her daughters but instead of the fiery colour of Ms. Frizzle's the woman had golden curls that had a hint of red.
"Valerie!" the man said, a huge smile covered his face as he looked at his daughter.
"Dad! Mum!" Ms. Frizzle trotted up to her parents and threw her arms around them. The Frizz then turned back towards her class and holding her parents' hands dragged them into the group that was watching them from the doorway.
"That's your Dad? He looks like a magician!"
"How else do you think she got a magic school bus?"
"And look! The Police box just appeared out of nowhere!"
"Is that a gun strapped to her thigh?"
"I hope the kids are safe here."
"Who are these people?"
"This is so cool!"
"I wish I stayed home today!"
Voices floated all around Ms. Frizzle but she wasn't listening she was just so happy that her parents made it on time. Her dad was a Time Lord but he was useless with dates and times and always ended up late! One time he told his companion he would be five minutes and ended up going for twelve years. Valerie turned her head towards her mother, "I guess you flew?" she asked with a smirk.
"Well, we needed to make it here in the right century, did we not?" Her mother laughed as her husband snorted with a scowl.
"Everybody!" The teacher clapped her hands, "These are my parents, The Doctor and Professor River Song."
